"In the Spring, there will be Growth".

To quote Peter Sellers' character Chaunce the Gardener in "Being There", the exuberant early 2013 stock market has been reflecting a more positive mood of late among consumers (although more recent data may be showing the economic dampening effects of the 2% increase in the payroll tax that everyone started feeling with their first 2013 pay checks). And if consumers feel a little better, then businesses do too, and are more willing to put up the "Hiring" sign. And that's what's been happening lately, with slight upticks in hiring, especially in the tech and healthcare sectors.

If you've been on the sidelines disheartened by the job outlook, look at what skills you have that can translate into these industries and others, and start applying again. Hiring managers are more active now then they have been in quite awhile.
